Leonard Williams upset at fans booing Giants, but Joe Judge, Nate Solder see it as a challenge

Leonard Williams said on Sunday he didn’t appreciate getting booed.

Joe Judge told him it will only make the cheering feel better.

"I love the passion of our fans," Judge said on Monday. "I say it all the time, it’s New York. What did you expect? It’s supposed to be tough, you know? You have to work hard for their respect and when you earn it, it’s that much more valuable."

Williams started the battle no athlete can ever win when he showed disdain toward booing fans at MetLife Stadium on Sunday walking off the field at halftime, then followed up by suggesting they shouldn’t express their displeasure in such a way.
